The report titled “Turkey’s Internal Threat” and sent to the court in connection with the hearing on the 1980 coup led by then-Chief of the General Staff Erven, accuses Armenians of treason and says that “what happened to them was a just and lawful act.”

The report says that 50-100 thousand Armenians died while the number of Turks killed was much greater, according to Radikal.
